🚨 Alice Huang’s Husband Identified: Her Business Partner Kang Wei, Founder and Controlling Shareholder of Hexi Investment
According to a report published today by Chinese financial media outlet Caixin, Alice Huang’s husband is Kang Wei, her business partner and the founder and actual controlling shareholder of Shanghai Hexi Investment.
Caixin also cited sources familiar with the matter as saying that Kang has been placed under criminal compulsory measures by Shanghai police. However, no public announcement from Shanghai police or judicial authorities has been found so far.
Kang, an investor born in the 1970s, began his career in securities research before moving into investment management. He previously served as chief strategist at Shenyin Wanguo Securities Research Institute, executive deputy general manager and chief investment officer at Zhonghai Trust, general manager of Zhonghai Fund Management, and general manager of Sichuan Trust.
He attracted industry attention when he became general manager of Zhonghai Fund Management at a relatively young age.
However, Kang’s career has faced setbacks in recent years, including regulatory penalties for securities trading violations. According to sources cited by Caixin, Shanghai police placed him under criminal compulsory measures around the time of the Chinese New Year in early 2026.
Alice Huang’s 2016 résumé stated that she had four years of experience in the media industry and eight years in securities. She listed previous positions as a news reporter for Hunan TV and CCTV-1, assistant to the head of HSBC’s private banking division, vice president of a business division at CITIC Securities, and deputy general manager of Hexi Investment.
Both Hexi Investment and Kang Wei previously received regulatory penalties over securities trading violations involving Huitou Technology (慧球科技).
